Ivory provides easy integration between your exiting java classes, Avalon services, and Axis. It allows easy deployment of soap services with none of the WSDD configuration that Axis normally mandates. Simply register your class or service and wa-la, you have a new RPC SOAP service. However, it also allows Avalon services to be used with the standard WSDD configuration easily.

There are two ways to use the AxisService. You can either use it to configure services dynamically. Or you can use it with the standard WSDD Configuration.
